If you have ever been out and about with your smart phone and needed to type something quickly which was far more than than a few sentences, you dreamed for a keyboard you could easily carry around with you. At the moment, those are far larger than we would like to see in our mobile wanderings. But, what if you could have a bluetooth keyboard that was extremely portable and even flexible that would take up very little space to carry around. Something less than the size of a roll of quarters. There is development of exactly that going on right now.
The Indiegogo project for Qii is in the process of building up funding to complete the project for creating just such a thing. A flexible keyboard on a plastic sheet which rolls up for easy travel and transport. It has all the features of a full QWERTY keyboard, including a 10 digit keypad for fast entry of numbers. The endeavor is looking for funding right now to make this a reality. They have gotten things working on a larger package and are looking to get it evolved to the small size shown above. If they can be successful, this will mean a fantastic product for everyday use.
Unfortunately, they are asking for $1,850,000 to be raised by January 6th. That is $1.85 million dollars which is quite an undertaking for getting funding for a project. If they can reach the desired goal, they will be able to finish the work to reduce the size of the Qii flexible keyboard and bring it to market. There are currently black and white models planned and they are open to other colors as they move this towards the marketplace.
If you are interested in helping them reach their goal, head on over to Indiegogo.com/Qii.
